Anduin's physical appearance reflects his inner pain, with scars, weathered skin, and trembling limbs.He's a Death Knight. The runes on Anduins armor look like they have something to do with his domination.Canonically Anduin is a Priest, but like most faction leader-tier NPCs in WoW, he can assume the mantle of many classes at once as the plot demands. In that regard, he's equal parts Priest and Paladin with a dash of Warrior thrown in for good measure.
What is Anduin doing in Dragonflight : Near the final battle against Zovaal, Anduin manages to break free from the Domination, but is left mentally and emotionally damaged due to his actions while under the Jailer's control. While not an active participant in Dragonflight, Anduin is heard to be roaming Azeroth in solitude to heal his damaged mental state.

In Shadowlands, Anduin was captured and taken into the Maw, a space beyond death where he was tortured by Sylvanas and the Maw's ruler, the Jailer. His will was ultimately dominated by the Jailer, who used him to attack the Shadowlands' Archon and attempt to remake reality in the Jailer's image.
Did Anduin lose his light
Under the Jailer's influence, Anduin committed terrible acts and turned against his closest friends. Though he managed to break free, he revealed that he had lost his connection to the Light, shattering his faith to the core and losing a significant part of his identity.As was already revealed at BlizzCon, Anduin returns in The War Within opening cinematic, still struggling to come to grips with his past actions when confronted by Thrall, both of whom have been drawn by the Sword of Sargeras by the calls of the World Soul deep within Azeroth.Jailer created a weapon called Kingsmourn and used it to take control Anduin's body and then sent him to assassinate Kyrestia the Firstborne (Leader of the Kyrians – one of the factions in Shadowlands).

His will was ultimately dominated by the Jailer, who used him to attack the Shadowlands' Archon and attempt to remake reality in the Jailer's image. Though Anduin ultimately fought back, he did an awful lot of murder and destruction under the Jailer's control, and Anduin came out of the expansion fairly traumatized.
Anduin also said "I have no Light. Not after what I've seen. Not after what I've done." Helplessness is probably the most common symptom I've seen of Post-Traumatic Stress. He feels as if he's done horrible things that he could have prevented, which is common is large amounts of individuals who have seen combat.In Shadowlands, Anduin was captured and taken into the Maw, a space beyond death where he was tortured by Sylvanas and the Maw's ruler, the Jailer.
